Norwich City 2-3 Watford - As it happened

John Eustace and Danny Graham had Watford 2-0 up inside 24 minutes to silence a packed Carrow Road who were eager to see the Canaries carry on the momentum from their League One title win in May.

Norwich lost 7-1 at home on the opening day last season and while they improved after the break to score through Andrew Crofts, another poor start to the campaign was confirmed when Graham struck his second late on.

Michael Nelson was able to find a second goal for the hosts in stoppage time but Watford were worthy winners.
